Even with chuunibyou, let's learn together!

Fumino Furuhashi looked startled and stammered, "Rizu, what's with this all of a sudden?"

"Because we've always been calling each other by our first names, but we haven't included Hayakawa, which isn't right."

Ogata Riju looked at the old bridge and said calmly.

Because we are girls and Hayakawa is a boy, how can that be the same?

Fumino Furuhashi blushed slightly, wanting to refute but too embarrassed to say it directly.

"Also, we've known each other for a long time,"

Rizu Ogata said, "I heard from a friend that if friends have a good relationship, keep in touch often, and don't dislike each other, they can call each other by name, so I think it's okay."

"friend?"

Fumino blinked, puzzled, and asked, "When did you make other friends, Riko-chan?"

Isn't it just me and Hayakawa?

"In the next few days, then,"

Rizu Ogata calmly replied, "She's a classmate of mine."

"Her name is Sawako Sekijo."

Chapter 186 A Beautiful Temple Fantasy

Sawako Sekijo?

Hayakawa frowned slightly upon hearing the name, feeling it belonged to someone who was a bit odd and liked to mess with oranges.

Hayakawa felt a strange unease and a sense of unease.

Is it okay for Ogata to be friends with this person? Could he be a bad person or someone with poor character, and what if he leads her astray and makes her stop studying?

But judging from the name, it's a girl's name, so it should be fine.

Hayakawa thought to herself but didn't ask any questions, continuing to read attentively. Fumino Furuhashi, on the other hand, was quite interested in this new friend and couldn't help but ask Ogata a question.

Chapter 187 Rizu and Shiro

"Ugh…"

Hayakawa sighed and remained silent.

Such a perfect being, yet still working so hard, sparing no effort—it's truly unfortunate that the other geniuses living in the same era as me are.

Once he finishes his training in the temple, all worldly distractions will no longer affect him. At that time, whether it's Fumino Furuhashi's A or Rizu Ogata's G, they will be nothing to him.

Meanwhile, Furuhashi and Ogata had finished discussing Sawako Sekijo and began the next step of their discussion.

"In short, I think it's about time we started addressing each other by our first names,"

Ogata Rizu calmly

Chapter 188 Poor Natsukawa Masaki

"Uh...you don't expect the school to use club funds to buy it for us, do you?"

Hayakawa was watching several students huffing and puffing as they carried the equipment downstairs when he heard Furuhashi's words and turned back to look at her with a strange expression.

"Yes Yes."

Gu Qiao nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of anticipation.

"You wish!"

Hayakawa scoffed, "What kind of club are they? What kind of club are we? The girls' basketball club is a long-established and large club in the school, and they often participate in regional competitions and win awards for the school. Isn't it normal for the school to pay for their equipment? Our... the astronomy club only has three or four members. We're afraid to apply for funding..."

Chapter 189 Women's Basketball Game

"High school boys in this world,"

Natsukawa Masuzu stomped her pretty, thick-heeled boots on the ground viciously, and finally said, "You should all just die!"

Hayakawa: "..."

Another ordinary person defeated by life's hardships, how pitiful~ But there's nothing we can do, after all, not everyone has such an extraordinary will as me.

Hayakawa silently shook his head, showing no dissatisfaction at being attacked himself.

His standard for himself is that of a king, a saint. What does it matter to Hayakawa if others attack boys? Besides, he doesn't think there's anything wrong with what Natsukawa Masuzu said.

Hayakawa also understands Natsukawa Masuzu's pain, being confessed to more than fifty times in a month... It would be too cruel not to let her say a few angry words.

But wasn't her condition much better before? How did it turn out like this again? Could it be...?

Hayakawa's expression shifted, and he said, "Natsukawa, has someone confessed to you again recently?"

Upon hearing this, Natsukawa Masuzu trembled, turned around and silently looked at Hayakawa, and after a long while, she nodded gently.

"Uh…"

Hayakawa didn't know what to say, and said in a subtle tone, "Please accept my condolences."

"I am sorry for your loss?"

Natsukawa Masuzu revealed a sinister and eerie smile, muttering to herself with her head down, "That guy somehow got my contact information, and then kept adding me on LINE over and over again... no matter how many times I blocked him, he would just create a new number and then harass me with disgusting messages in the comments section... I won't let him get away with this..."

"This is already a crime."

Hayakawa said expressionlessly, "Why don't you just call the police?"

"I don't want to call the police!"

Xia Chuanzhen was decisive and sneered, "Letting this scum go to jail for two days is too lenient on him. I'm going to teach this guy a lesson in my own way and let him know the consequences of messing with me."

Hayakawa said expressionlessly, "Whatever you want."

"In short, I'm in a really bad mood right now."

Natsukawa Masuzu suddenly turned to look at Hayakawa, revealing a sweet, 100% genuine smile: "So, as my friend, it shouldn't be too much to ask you to take a walk with me on the playground, right?"

One second she had the expression of a wicked queen, the next she was like an innocent Snow White…

"Ugh…"

Hayakawa glanced at Natsukawa, scratched his head, and finally softened, sighing, "Half an hour at most."

If we move forward half an hour, that's roughly the time he usually gets home, meaning the study time he managed to save today will be wasted again.

"Thank you, Minister, I like you the most!"

Natsukawa Masuzu's eyes lit up slightly, then she reached out and blew Hayakawa a kiss: "mua~"

"No~"

Hayakawa frowned, silently turned around and walked towards the playground, looking completely nonchalant.

His heart was racing.

……

Minister…

Hayakawa was accompanied by a girl in a flowing white dress, walking in the autumn wind with her hands in her pockets and her head held high with a blank expression.

That's a really nice name.

He looked ahead. It was a cool autumn dusk. The school buildings in the distance were shrouded in shadow. Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the sycamore leaves at the school gate, casting dappled patterns of light on the road. The patterns of light swayed gently in the autumn breeze, like a sky full of stars.

Natsukawa Masuzu stood amidst dappled light and shadow, a gentle breeze ruffling her hair, and golden light shimmering on her profile, creating a dazzling halo that made one feel as if they were in a sun-drenched orange grove.

It was the time for school to let out, and there were still many students participating in sports clubs on the playground. Students were also leaving the school building from time to time. At this moment, whether it was students carrying their schoolbags and walking out of the school building to go home, or young athletes training hard and sweating profusely, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Natsukawa Masuzu. This was true for both boys and girls. Even though she was on the edge of the playground, the moment she stepped into it, her position became the most eye-catching spot on the entire playground.

"Let's take a short walk, something like that."

Natsukawa Masaki said to Hayakawa beside her, her usually stern and aloof face softening like an iceberg thawing when she saw Hayakawa.

At that moment, the sounds of countless hearts breaking could be heard from the side, from both boys and girls.

Hayakawa: "..."

Hearing the whispers around him, Hayakawa knew he was probably going to be caught up in another storm of rumors.

Natsukawa Masaki seemed completely oblivious to the strangeness around her, or perhaps she simply ignored it and didn't care. She just pointed to the large, bustling area ahead and said, "There are so many people over there, let's go take a look."

"Ok."

Hayakawa nodded; he had already spotted it. A large crowd was gathered there, occasionally letting out gasps of surprise, as if some kind of competition was taking place.

The two walked forward shoulder to shoulder, carefully skirting the crowd in front of them and the scattered people sitting on the ground beside them, before they could see clearly what was inside.

It turns out it was a basketball game, specifically a women's basketball game.

The game looked quite formal, with both teams wearing distinctly different colored jerseys. Scoreboards and timers were hung on both sides of the half-court line. The referee on the court was wearing a black and white striped T-shirt with a silver whistle hanging on his chest. He looked quite professional, and judging from his age, he was probably some PE teacher in disguise. There were even colorful flags hanging on both sides of the basketball hoop, which looked quite exaggerated.

More importantly, there was a fence around the basketball court, separating the basketball court from the onlookers. The scene was made so formal and grand, no wonder so many students came to watch.

"Uh, what are they doing?"

Hayakawa stared indifferently at the crowd ahead.

"They're probably preparing for next year's regional basketball tournament,"

After thinking for a moment, Xia Chuanzhen said, "Our school's sports clubs, especially the girls' basketball team, are particularly strong. They won the championship last year, and this year they definitely hope to continue their efforts and successfully defend their title."

"That's it."

Hayakawa nodded silently, then his eyes flashed with a terrifying death light like anti-aircraft guns, and he breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that there was no silly ribbon girl on the field.

"The way you look at me..."

Natsukawa was stunned when he saw Hayakawa's predatory eyes, and said incredulously, "So you like this kind of thing!"

Hayakawa: "..."

"I see, I see, so you like this type of girl~ sporty girl."

Natsukawa Masuzu looked at Hayakawa with a look of newfound respect, then suddenly pointed to herself and said seriously to Hayakawa, "Do you think I look good in sportswear?"

Hayakawa turned away from her and focused on watching the game.

The match was now at its most intense stage. The score was very close, and the players were exchanging attacks back and forth. The tense atmosphere caused waves of gasps from the audience, with occasional screams from girls.

Chapter 190 Basketball Girl Yotsuba-chan

"So passionate..."

Hayakawa watched the girls on the field attacking and defending, and said expressionlessly.

"This is youth!"

Natsukawa Masaki said with a half-smile, his tone of affirmation carrying a mocking or even sarcastic undertone.

"Youth? Gorilla."

Hayakawa coldly replied, "I have absolutely no interest in this kind of youth that wastes precious energy for no reason."

"You're going a bit to extremes, Hayakawa-kun. Isn't that what youth is all about?"

Natsukawa Masaki covered her mouth and chuckled, "If a person doesn't argue with their parents or run away from home during their adolescence, it's like they don't have a youth."

"...What right do you have to call me extreme?"

Hayakawa's face immediately darkened: "Your youth is not even as good as theirs."

"Humph~"

Natsukawa Masuzu gave a soft snort: "Then, Hayakawa-san, what do you think youth is?"

Hayakawa pushed up his non-existent glasses, a clear light of wisdom flashing in his eyes: "Naturally, it's about learning."

"...Tch~"
